I enjoyed this way more than I thought I would, based on the quality of the preceding follow-ups to 'Insidious'. This is actually my second favourite of the series, narrowly beating 'Insidious: Chapter 2'.

'Insidious: The Last Key' definitely starts better than it concludes, as it creates an unnerving premise which made me attached to Lin Shaye's Elise instantly. There's also a solid amount of heart to this fourth production, more noticeable here than in any of the others to be honest.

Shaye is very good, as she has been throughout since the original. I like the arc they've, albeit retrospectively, created for her character. Aside from the likeable Angus Sampson (Tucker), none of the other cast members are all that memorable, though Kirk Acevedo (Ted) and Josh Stewart (Gerald) give passable performances.

This is still some way off the 2010 film and is in no way great, though I can't help but admit that I had a more than decent time watching.
